The U.S. reference system modernization effort will replace the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83) with a new North American Terrestrial Reference Frame (NATRF2022), creating 1.3 to 1.5 m horizontal coordinate differences at the Canada–U.S. border with respect to Canada’s NAD83(CSRS). Never before have such significant differences existed between our two countries’ reference frames.There are compelling reasons for Canada to follow suit and adopt the NATRF2022 frame as our ...
Building on the panel discussion at GeoIgnite 2019, David Acco will discuss the potential of geospatial data and analytics to advance issues critical to Indigenous communities across Canada, from exerting sovereignty over territory, to environmental protection and climate change adaptation, to natural resources development. Mr. Acco will further outline how his firm, Acosys Consulting Services Inc., has developed an approach to marrying Indigenous Traditional Knowledge (ITK) and geospatial...
Presented by: Jake Dickinson & John Roos Abstract: As shrinking polar ice creates new opportunities for resource exploration and shipping routes, the importance for Arctic nations to monitor the ongoing expansion in the Arctic is ever increasing. Additionally, climate change continues to impact people and the environment. High resolution satellite imagery remains one of the most effective means of monitoring inaccessible and de...
Strategic Geospatial for a Complex WorldWhere humans move and landscapes change there is value. That’s geospatial. This talk is about how to think strategically about geospatial technology in an increasingly complex world.In particular, we will focus on canada’s strengths, and how we might inject novel geospatial technology into new markets
Ocean, Marine & Coastal Hydro(Geo)spatial Management is critical for the Blue Economy.
